Welcome to one of the most off-the-beaten-path destinations for the truly adventurous remote worker. Located in the far northeast of Senegal, near the border with Mauritania, Kanel is a destination for the "slow nomad" - those who have tired of the neon lights of Bali or Lisbon and crave an authentic, deep immersion into West African culture and the Sahelian landscape.

Kanel is the capital of the Kanel Department within the Matam Region. It is a place where the pace of life is dictated by the sun and the flow of the Senegal River. This guide will provide everything you need to know about navigating this unique, rugged, and culturally rich frontier.
